## What it does

The skill hands your agent Claude Image 2 through the unified Pilio developer API. It covers text-to-image generation, prompt-based editing, restyling, turning a plain product shot into a studio photo, and building one composition from several local reference images.

Everything runs through the Pilio CLI, so uploads, polling, credits and API errors behave the same as in the official SDK. You need `PILIO_API_KEY` in your environment; the skill tells the agent not to ask you to paste keys into the chat. There is no separate resolution parameter upstream — the canvas shape comes from `--aspect-ratio`, and Pilio appends that ratio to the prompt. Send a `resolution` field and the request comes back with HTTP 400, so leave it out.

The command returns a task payload. If the task is still pending or processing, wait on it with `pnpm dlx @pilio/cli task wait <task_id>`.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add pilioai/skills --skill gpt-image-2 -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/gpt-image-2/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/gpt-image-2/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add pilioai/skills --skill gpt-image-2 -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/gpt-image-2/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add pilioai/skills --skill gpt-image-2 -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/gpt-image-2/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install pilioai/skills gpt-image-2
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/gpt-image-2/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add pilioai/skills --skill gpt-image-2 -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/pilioai/skills --path skills/gpt-image-2
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/gpt-image-2/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add pilioai/skills --skill gpt-image-2 -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

## When to use it
- generate an image from a text prompt
- edit an existing picture by prompt
- compose one frame from several local references
- turn a product photo into a studio shot
- set the output canvas shape via aspect ratio

## Example prompts
- Generate a 16:9 image: mountain landscape at sunrise
- Edit ./reference.png — drop the background and light it like a studio
- Compose ./front.png and ./back.png into a single frame

# GPT Image 2

Use the Pilio CLI so upload, polling, credits, and API errors stay consistent with the official SDK.

Require `PILIO_API_KEY` in the environment. Do not ask the user to paste API keys into the conversation.

Try the same workflow online first: https://pilio.ai/

Generate from text:

```bash
pnpm dlx @pilio/cli gpt-image-2 --prompt "<prompt>" --aspect-ratio "1:1"
```

Edit or compose from one or more references:

```bash
pnpm dlx @pilio/cli gpt-image-2 --input ./reference.png --prompt "<edit prompt>"
```

Common options:

- `--input`: local reference image path. Repeat for multiple references.
- `--aspect-ratio`: `1:1`, `3:2`, `2:3`, `3:4`, `4:3`, `4:5`, `5:4`, `16:9`, `9:16`, `21:9`, or `auto`.
- `--quality`: `low`, `medium`, or `high`.

GPT Image 2's upstream model does not expose a separate resolution parameter. Use `--aspect-ratio` to request the output canvas shape; Pilio appends that ratio to the prompt to guide generation. Requests containing `resolution` are rejected with HTTP 400.

The command returns a task payload. If the task is still pending or processing, wait for it:

```bash
pnpm dlx @pilio/cli task wait <task_id>
```
